    My inlaws are giving me a 2000 Grand Prix GT that makes a airplane noise while driving. Sounds like it needs front wheel bearings. I want to order the hubs from RockAuto but Timkin shows a first design and a second design. Is there a way to tell the diffrence from the VIN? The car is in NJ and I am driving up from NC and want to make sure I have the right parts to do the job.


    Thanks In Advance,
    Jim

    they should be the same Id assume. Just check to make sure the bearings are indeed bad, then order your parts.

    Timken Online Parts Catalog shows one part number for the front (the first design) and one part number for the rear for a 2000 Grand Prix. You might want to contact Timken pre-purchase to confirm given the discrepancy between its listing and Rock Auto's. Timken's contact info is at http://www.timken.com/en-us/contact/Pages/default.aspx

    The Timkin part number for the front hubs is 513121. I just did both of mine last weekend.
